Derivatives - Hedging

Sir hedging is done to safe gaurd our existing holdings. Let's say I have a position with delivery of 1000 CR and I think market will go down for next 2 months , in order to safeguard I will short the futures then irrespective of market increase or decrease I will get 1000 cr. But rather than this hedging I can exit 1000 cr and invest in risk free rate of 5 % pa , assets for 2m and after 2months invest back in stocks , in this case I have earned extra income. But where as in case of hedging my 1000cr is safeguarded and didn't earned any thing on it. It is better to sell off and invest in risk free and invest back in stocks right ? Please correct me if I am missing some logic. I understand we need to carefully track market when the trend changes to upward and invest the money back in stocks ,here there is risk of missing out potential gains , this is one challenge. But the same challenge is faced in case of hedging also right? Like if I continuously shorting futures my 1000 cr will not grow even if market is increasing , and how do we know when we need to stop hedging.

General clause act

Corporate & Other Laws

answered on 03-Dec-23 13:49

As per general clause act,If the due date is public holiday, then next working day is taken. But in foundation I have studied like if it is sudden public holiday,then next working day is taken. If it is a known public holiday like independence day, diwali etc, if due date is such date then preceding day is taken Which is correct???

Public holiday or sudden public holiday we consider next working day as per the general clause act.

Carrying cost

Costing

answered on 01-Dec-23 11:39

If in the question they have given the percent of cash credit ,why should we take that percent for calculating carrying cost

latest answer

Assume you have taken a loan of 1 lakhs and brought inventory worth 1lakhs, now you have to store this goods for 1 month before sending for production or to sell directly, then you will incur interest on 1 lakh at 10percent, then carrying cost or holding cost of inventory will be 10k
